Competition among companies providing services for the creation and promotion of sites is growing very rapidly. This phenomenon is quite understandable: a corporate or personal page on the Internet is gradually becoming the norm rather than a luxury. Opening your own web studio is quite easy in terms of initial investment, but its promotion will be difficult due to the large number of similar organizations.
It is necessary
- - a computer;
- - the Internet;
- - start-up capital.
Instructions
Step 1
Start by forming your own team. As a rule, all responsibilities in a web studio are clearly separated. At the initial stage, you can limit yourself to only two specialists: a programmer and a designer. Subsequently, it is advisable to expand the staff: you will need a manager who will search for and communicate with clients, as well as a specialist in website promotion and technical support. Your staff does not have to be large: it is better to find narrow specialists on the basis of outsourcing.
Step 2
If your start-up capital allows, find an office. However, at first you can do without it, leaving to the client on your own. However, at a certain level of development, you will need your own premises, which will expand the range of opportunities.
Step 3
Create your own website that best demonstrates your capabilities. The corporate page should be original, interesting, but at the same time laconic and technically competent. Submit a portfolio of works on your website. If you haven't had any orders yet, make a few of any original pages that will help the prospect get an idea of your level.
Step 4
Create a template for a brief for a client survey. You can download the sample on the Internet and modify it at your own discretion. The brief should include all the necessary information on each project - from the specifics of the company's activities and the goals of creating the site to wishes for design and technical content.
Step 5
Draw up a contract for both the creation of the site and its maintenance and subsequent promotion. Be sure to include a clause in the agreement that the client is obliged to place on his website a link to your web studio as a developer. So you can get an additional source of customer acquisition.
